HEICO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
January 31, 2002
1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of
HEICO Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all
information and footnotes normally included in annual consolidated financial
statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2001. In the opinion of management, the
unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation
of the consolidated condensed balance sheets, statements of operations and cash
flows for such interim periods presented. The results of operations for the
three months ended January 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the
results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year.
2. All net income per share, dividend per share, stock options and shares
outstanding information has been retroactively restated to reflect all stock
dividends.
3. Certain amounts previously presented in the financial statements of prior
periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation.
4. In November 2001, the Company, through a subsidiary, acquired certain assets
and liabilities of a company. The purchase price was not significant to the
Company's consolidated financial statements.
5. In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations be
accounted for under the purchase method. The statement further requires separate
recognition of intangible assets that meet one of two criteria. The statement
applies to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142
requires that an intangible asset that is acquired shall be initially recognized
and measured based on its fair value. Goodwill in each reporting unit must be
tested for impairment as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the
statement is initially applied in its entirety. An entity has six months from
the date it initially applies this statement to complete the transitional
impairment test. The statement also provides that goodwill should not be
amortized, but shall be tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if
circumstances indicate potential impairment, through a comparison of fair value
to its carrying amount. SFAS 142 also requires that reporting units based on an
entity's reporting structure be established. All goodwill recognized in an
entity's statement of financial position at the date SFAS 142 is initially
applied shall be assigned to one or more reporting units. SFAS No. 142 is
effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2001. Early adoption
of SFAS 142 is permitted for entities with fiscal years beginning after March
15, 2001, provided that the first interim financial statements have not been
previously issued.
The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142 effective the beginning of
the first quarter of fiscal 2002. These standards only permit prospective
application of the new accounting; accordingly, adoption of these standards will
not affect previously reported financial
5
information. The Company is still in the process of assigning goodwill to
reporting units and performing the transitional goodwill impairment test. This
will be completed within the six-month period allowed. For acquisitions
subsequent to June 30, 2001, the allocation of purchase price is preliminary
while management obtains final information regarding the fair value of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed. The principal effect of implementing SFAS No.
142 in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 was the cessation of the amortization of
goodwill; however, impairment reviews may result in future write-downs. Pretax
goodwill amortization in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 amounted to $1.6
million or $.04 per diluted share net of tax.
The following table reflects a comparison of the current year to the comparable
prior year periods' results of operations and net income per share adjusted to
give effect to the adoption of SFAS No. 142:
For the three months ended January 31,

Changes in estimates on long-term contracts accounted for under the percentage
completion method did not have a significant impact on net income and diluted
net income per share in the three months ended January 31, 2002. For the three

10. Pursuant to the Company's $120 million revolving credit facility (Credit
Facility), funds are available for funding acquisitions, working capital and
general corporate requirements on a revolving basis through July 2003. The
weighted average interest rates were 2.5% and 3.4% at January 31, 2002 and
October 31, 2001, respectively.
7
The interest rates on the Series 1988 industrial development revenue bonds were
1.5% and 2.1% at January 31, 2002 and October 31, 2001, respectively.
11. For the first quarter of fiscal 2002 and 2001, cost of sales amounts include
approximately $2.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of new product
research and development expenses. These expenses for the first three months of
fiscal 2001 are net of $300,000 of reimbursements received from Lufthansa
Technik AG (Lufthansa) pursuant to the research and development cooperation
agreement entered into in October 1997. As of October 31, 2001, all
reimbursements for research and development expenses were paid by Lufthansa. The
new product research and development expenses for the first quarter of fiscal
2002 are net of reimbursements from AMR Corp., the parent company of American
Airlines (AMR), under their joint venture agreement with HEICO Aerospace
Holdings Corp (HEICO Aerospace). The reimbursements from AMR were not
significant in the period.
12. The Company's effective tax rate decreased from 38.7% in the first quarter
2001 to 35.1% in the first quarter 2002 primarily due to the elimination of
goodwill amortization.
13. Information on operating segments for the quarter ended January 31, 2002 and

16. The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the normal
course of business. Based upon the amounts sought by the plaintiffs in these
actions, management is of the opinion that the outcome of these matters will not
have a significant effect on the Company's consolidated condensed financial
statements.
17. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". SFAS 144 supercedes SFAS Statement No. 121
(SFAS 121), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of". SFAS 144 applies to all long-lived assets
(including discontinued operations) and consequently amends APB 30, "Reporting
Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a
Business". SFAS 144 develops one accounting model (based on the model in SFAS
121) for long-lived assets that are to be disposed of by sale, as well as
addresses the principal implementation issues. SFAS 144 requires that long-lived
assets that are to be disposed of by sale be measured at the lower of book value
or fair value less cost to sell. That requirement eliminates the requirement of
APB 30 that discontinued operations be measured at net realizable value or that
entities include under "discontinued operations" in the financial
9
statements amounts for operating losses that have not yet occurred.
Additionally, SFAS 144 expands the scope of discontinued operations to include
all components of an entity with operations that (1) can be distinguished from
the rest of the entity and (2) will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of
the entity in a disposal transaction. While the Company has not completed the
process of determining the effect of this new accounting pronouncement on its
consolidated financial statements, the Company currently expects that the effect
of SFAS No. 144 on the Company's financial statements, when it becomes
effective, will not be significant. SFAS 144 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001 and generally the provisions of the statement
will be applied prospectively.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
This discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be
read in conjunction with our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and
Notes thereto included herein.
Our Flight Support Group (FSG) consists of HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. (HEICO
Aerospace) and its subsidiaries and our Electronic Technologies Group (ETG)
consists of HEICO Electronic Technologies Corp. and its subsidiaries.
In November 2001, the Company, through a FSG subsidiary, acquired certain assets
and liabilities of a company. The purchase price was not significant to the
Company's consolidated financial statements.
In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations be
accounted for under the purchase method. The statement further requires separate
recognition of intangible assets that meet one of two criteria. The statement
applies to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142
requires that an intangible asset that is acquired shall be initially recognized
and measured based on its fair value. Goodwill in each reporting unit must be
tested for impairment as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the
statement is initially applied in its entirety. An entity has six months from
the date it initially applies this statement to complete the transitional
impairment test. The statement also provides that goodwill should not be
amortized, but shall be tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if
circumstances indicate potential impairment, through a comparison of fair value
to its carrying amount. SFAS 142 also requires that reporting units based on an
entity's reporting structure be established. All goodwill recognized in an
entity's statement of financial position at the date SFAS 142 is initially
applied shall be assigned to one or more reporting units. SFAS No. 142 is
effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2001. Early adoption
of SFAS 142 is permitted for entities with fiscal years beginning after March
15, 2001, provided that the first interim financial statements have not been
previously issued.
The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142 effective the beginning of
the first quarter of fiscal 2002. These standards only permit prospective
application of the new accounting; accordingly, adoption of these standards will
not affect previously reported financial information. The Company is still in
the process of assigning goodwill to reporting units and performing the
transitional goodwill impairment test. This will be completed within the
six-month period allowed. For acquisitions subsequent to June 30, 2001, the
allocation of purchase price is preliminary while management obtains final
information regarding the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
The principal effect of implementing SFAS No. 142 in the first quarter of fiscal
2002 was the cessation of the amortization of goodwill; however, impairment
reviews may result in future write-downs. Pretax goodwill amortization in the
first quarter of fiscal 2001 amounted to $1.6 million or $.04 per diluted share
net of tax.

Comparison of First Quarter of Fiscal 2002 to First Quarter of Fiscal 2001
Net Sales
Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 totaled $41.0 million, up 3% when
compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2001 net sales of $39.7 million.
The increase in first quarter of fiscal 2002 sales reflects an increase of $4.6
million (a 57% increase) to $12.8 million in sales from the ETG partially offset
by a decrease of $3.3 million (a 10% decrease) to $28.2 million in sales from
the FSG. The ETG sales increase mainly reflects acquisitions as the Company
expanded its capabilities to include laser, navigation and power supply battery
technologies. This increase was partially offset by continued weakness in sales
of EMI shielding products to the electronics and communications industries. The
FSG sales decrease mainly reflects the continued impact of the terrorist attacks
of September 11, 2001 (September 11th) on commercial airline customers and
continued softness in demand within the component overhaul and repair services
market, particularly from cargo carriers which resulted in lower PMA parts and
overhaul services sales. This decrease was partially offset by sales of
newly-acquired businesses. The sales attributable to newly-acquired businesses
of both the ETG and FSG approximated $9 million.
Gross Profits and Operating Expenses
The Company's gross profit margins averaged 36.2% for the first quarter of
fiscal 2002 as compared to 43.0% for the first quarter of fiscal 2001. This
decrease reflects lower margins within the FSG primarily attributable to lower
sales of higher margin PMA parts and overhaul services and a budgeted increase
in new product research and development expenses of $1.0 million. The decrease
also reflects lower gross margins in the ETG due primarily to lower sales of
higher margin EMI shielding products partially offset by higher gross profit
margins from acquired businesses. Cost of sales amounts for the first quarter of
fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001
13
include approximately $2.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of new
product research and development expenses. These expenses for the first quarter
of fiscal 2001 are net of $300,000 of reimbursements received from Lufthansa
pursuant to the research and development cooperation agreement entered into in
October 1997. As of October 31, 2001, all reimbursements for research and
development expenses were paid by Lufthansa. The new product research and
development expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 are net of
reimbursements from AMR under their joint venture agreement with HEICO
Aerospace. The reimbursements from AMR were not significant in the period. FSG's
new product research and development expense for the full fiscal 2002 is
expected to increase by approximately $3 million over fiscal 2001 as the Company
plans to introduce additional new commercial jet engine and aircraft parts.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased $86,000 to $9.1
million for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 from $9.2 million for the first
quarter of fiscal 2001. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses decreased to
22.2% for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to 23.1% for the first
quarter of fiscal 2001. The decrease in SG&A and SG&A as a percent of sales is
mainly due to the elimination of goodwill amortization ($1.6 million) as
required under SFAS 142, discussed above, offset by the additional SG&A expenses
of newly-acquired businesses.
Operating Income
Operating income decreased $2.1 million to $5.8 million for the first quarter of
fiscal 2002 from $7.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2001. As a percent
of net sales, operating income decreased from 19.8% in the first quarter of
fiscal 2001 to 14.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The decrease in
operating income reflects a decrease of $2.8 million from $7.0 million to $4.2
million in the Company's FSG partially offset by an increase of $800,000 from
$1.9 million to $2.7 million in the Company's ETG. The decline in operating
income as a percent of sales reflects a decline in the FSG's operating income as
a percentage of net sales from 22.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 to
14.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 while the ETG's operating income as a
percentage of net sales declined from 24.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2001
to 21.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The decrease in the FSG's
operating income and operating income as a percent of sales reflects the lower
gross margins discussed above. The lower margins in the FSG were partially
offset by the elimination of goodwill amortization of $1.2 million and the
operating income of acquired businesses. The increase in ETG operating income
reflects operating income from the acquisitions and the elimination of goodwill
amortization of $400,000, partially offset by the continued weakness in economic
conditions in certain technology industries, which continues to impact sales of
EMI shielding products. The decrease in the ETG's operating income as a percent
of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 is mainly due to lower sales of
the higher margin EMI shielding products partially offset by higher gross
margins of acquired businesses and the elimination of goodwill amortization.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $236,000 to $788,000 from the first quarter of fiscal
2001 to the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The increase was principally due to
borrowings used to fund acquisitions.
Interest and Other Income
Interest and other income decreased $252,000 from $315,000 to $63,000 from the
first quarter of fiscal 2001 to the first quarter of fiscal 2002. This decrease
mainly reflects lower interest rates
14
and other income.
Minority Interests
Minority interests principally represents the 20% minority interest held by
Lufthansa in HEICO Aerospace and the 16% minority interest held by AMR in the
joint venture with HEICO Aerospace. The decrease from $760,000 in the first
quarter of fiscal 2001 to $439,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 results
from lower earnings of the FSG.
Net Income
The Company's net income was $2.8 million, or $.13 per diluted share, in the
first quarter of fiscal 2002 and $3.9 million, or $.18 per diluted share, in the
first quarter of fiscal 2001. The first quarter of fiscal 2002 net income
includes a benefit as a result of adopting SFAS No. 142 discussed above. For the
first quarter of fiscal 2001, net income as adjusted on a proforma basis for the
adoption of SFAS No. 142 would have been $4.9 million, or $.22 per diluted
share. The lower net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 reflects the
lower operating income discussed above.
For the balance of fiscal 2002, the Company continues to expect some softness in
our commercial aviation markets. However, based on current expectations of
strengthening of the commercial aviation markets in the last half of 2002, the
Company continues to target full fiscal year revenues slightly ahead of levels
in fiscal 2001. With respect to earnings, the Company continues to believe
targeted revenues will result in fiscal 2002 earnings per share being in a range
of 85-90% of fiscal 2001. This is after deducting the budgeted increase in new
product research and development spending discussed above.
Inflation
The Company has generally experienced increases in its costs of labor, materials
and services consistent with overall rates of inflation. The impact of such
increases on the Company's net income has been generally minimized by efforts to
lower costs through manufacturing efficiencies and cost reductions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company generates cash primarily from operating activities and financing
activities, including borrowings under long-term credit agreements.
Principal uses of cash by the Company include acquisitions, increases in working
capital, payments of interest and principal on debt and capital expenditures.
The Company believes that operating cash flow and available borrowings under the
Company's Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund cash requirements for the
foreseeable future.
Operating Activities
The Company's cash flow from operations was $4.0 million for the first quarter
of 2002, consisting primarily of net income of $2.8 million, depreciation and
amortization of $1.1 million, tax benefit
15
on stock option exercises of $2.7 million, partially offset by an increase in
net operating assets of $2.5 million, mainly due to higher inventories in the
FSG associated with new products and inventory orders placed prior to September
11th.
Investing Activities
The principal cash used in investing activities in the first quarter of fiscal
2002 was acquisition related costs and capital expenditures of approximately
$4.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively.
Financing Activities
The Company's principal financing activities during the first quarter of fiscal
2002 included net proceeds of $3.0 million from the Company's Credit Facility to
fund acquisitions and the payment of cash dividends of $522,000.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". SFAS 144 supercedes SFAS Statement No. 121 (SFAS
121), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed of". SFAS 144 applies to all long-lived assets (including
discontinued operations) and consequently amends APB 30, "Reporting Results of
Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business". SFAS
144 develops one accounting model (based on the model in SFAS 121) for
long-lived assets that are to be disposed of by sale, as well as addresses the
principal implementation issues. SFAS 144 requires that long-lived assets that
are to be disposed of by sale be measured at the lower of book value or fair
value less cost to sell. That requirement eliminates the requirement of APB 30
that discontinued operations be measured at net realizable value or that
entities include under "discontinued operations" in the financial statements
amounts for operating losses that have not yet occurred. Additionally, SFAS 144
expands the scope of discontinued operations to include all components of an
entity with operations that (1) can be distinguished from the rest of the entity
and (2) will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a
disposal transaction. While the Company has not completed the process of
determining the effect of this new accounting pronouncement on its consolidated
financial statements, the Company currently expects that the effect of SFAS No.
144 on the Company's financial statements, when it becomes effective, will not
be significant. SFAS 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2001 and generally the provisions of the statement will be applied
prospectively.
Forward-Looking Statements
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the Act) provides a safe
harbor for forward looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. The
Company and its representatives may from time to time make written or oral
statements that are "forward-looking," including statements contained in this
report and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in
reports to the Company's shareholders. Management believes that all statements
that express expectations and projections with respect to future matters may
differ materially from that discussed as a result of factors, including, but not
limited to, the demand for commercial air travel, the adverse impact of the
September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on commercial airlines and the economy in
general, the extent of benefits received by U.S. airlines and air cargo carriers
under the Air Transportation Safety and System Stabilization Act,
16
considering any challenges to and interpretations or amendments of the Act,
increasing cost of insurance coverage as a result of the September 11, 2001
terrorist attacks, credit risk related to receivables from customers, product
specification costs and requirements, governmental and regulatory demands,
competition on military programs, government export policies, government funding
of military programs, product pricing levels, the Company's ability to make
acquisitions and achieve operating synergies from such acquisitions, interest
rates and economic conditions within and outside of the aerospace, defense and
electronics industries. For an enterprise such as the Company, a wide range of
factors could materially affect future developments and performance. A list of
such factors is set forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended October 31, 2001.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES
ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company's interest rate swap pursuant to which it exchanged floating rate
interest based on three-month LIBOR on a notional principal amount of $20
million expired on February 1, 2002. Based on the outstanding debt balance at
January 31, 2002, a change of 1% in interest rates would cause a change in
interest expense of approximately $700,000 on an annual basis.
